The entire Universe to the furthest Galaxy, we are told, is no more than a closed electron existing as part of a much bigger Universe we can never see. And that Universe is only an elementary particle in a still grander Universe. An infinite regression, up and down. - Carl Sagan

Well, that means I could buy one because it wouldn't be a waste of a sysem but I think I would rather buy a new tv for my PS3 instead of a PS4 for my old LCD TV, which is still pretty good but not as good as the ones out now, that's for sure.

Although this is good news...I am a little worried how long it's going to take before we get the "ps3 limitations". I know they promised ps3 users that 14 would come to them, and it's nice seing them fulfill that promise, but would it have been smarter to just have it on ps4 at this point?

in XI they were throwing around "ps2 limitations" a lot, and i would hate to see this happen at the start of ARR when the ps3's life is coming to an end (not right away, but maybe 2~ years after the ps4 is out).

There are just too many PS3 owners that won't be early adopters

Also $400

Who was it that kept saying that SE sucks for not having a PS4 release and was almost certain they wont? I think it was pubelle either way as I was saying back then I was almost certain SE would also release ARR for PS4 at some point to get all the gamers there as well.

My thoughts exactly! I'm waiting to see how my current tv plays with the game. Will upgrade if I can't read the chat font.

I have no idea what tv to get. 3d is out and since I have old hardware, I need composite and avg connections. Don't have a lot of space so it can't be larger than a 40", but darn right now I have a full screen tv and it looks huge compared to the the actually viewing surface space that new tvs have.

PSN is going to mandatory to play online multiplayer on the ps4. I hope PSN is not required to play ps4 mmos...

I doubt you will be required to have the paid psn model for ffxiv. The paid version is to support the multiplayer/matchmaking servers for normal games played via psn. Ffxiv will have its own servers so I doubt you will have to pay twice to play it.

I'm going to wait and hope that by the time arr is ready for ps4, the console will come with an arr bundle.

I wouldn't bet on ever seeing a bundle for a pay to play MMO. I think there would be too much backlash from clueless people complaining about a 'bait and switch' if they have to pony up a monthly fee. This concept is still alien to many people. Just my guess.

That's a good point; I didn't consider it. Regardless, I'm still going to wait until arr is released on ps4 before I buy one, so maybe I'll get lucky
